4.0 out of 5 stars A good guide to finding a bed and breakfast in CA, July 12, 2006

By	J. Li "SJ,CA Teacher" (Sunnyvale, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Recommended Bed & Breakfasts California, 9th (Paperback)

I rate this book a 4 mainly be the guide has no photos or detailed maps. While most of the places in this book we have visited were in fairly well-populated areas and can probably be google-mapped or mapquested at this point, it would still be nice to see a photo or two.

Otherwise the book is well organized and detailed enough. It divides California into different regions, gives recommendations in different price ranges, and gives enough detail about the amenities of each place like style of breakfast, Internet access, free wine tastings, and a few things to do near by.

One thing I wish would be addressed (and I do not have a more recent edition) is how "commercial" the bed and breakfast is. There are some places run by a management company. They are well taken care of, clean, and wonderful - buy they lack a little bit of charm and individuality, in my opinion. It that information was in the book, I do not remember.
